Rick and Rob. I really like your testing approach; Rob’s current gamer vs tested club. I feel you might want to get Rob to hit more than 3 balls (realise he’s testing multiple clubs at once so he could get a little tired). My reason for saying this is an average of 3 shots is not much of an “average”. For instance, ball speed for XR was fine except for the 3rd shot which appears to be a poor one, his best drive with epic had significantly different launch characteristics that the epic average. Anyhow, keep up the great work.

Rick, can you compare the new m2 driver and the m2 D TYPE? I would love to see if this so called Draw driver is much difference. There isn’t much on youtube about the D TYPE and Taylor made are not promoting it as much and I wonder why?

I tested a Callaway Epic Demo @ the course yesterday. Actual playing conditions. Regular shaft, neutral setting @ 10.5 degree. My swing speed is around 85-90. I did hit it pretty well, not any longer than my Cobra Amp Cell pro. Has a weird feel coming off the face at contact, you never feel you hit it solid. Sounds hollow…… I checked and I was hitting it right in the middle of the face. Personally, I wouldn’t pay $500 dollars for it, absolutely no way. My Cobra cost $149 new and hitting maybe one more fairway a round isn’t worth $500 dollars.

I just purchased this driver and kept the same shaft out of my GBB (previous model) black Kuro Kage stiff as it gave me good numbers on the simulator. I have just taken it out on course and I’m easily 10-20m further. My side spin numbers are in the low 100’s and even when I miss hit it the results are ridiculous. Unless I do an absolutely awful swing my miss hit still go straight and good distance. I do think this club is well worth a look.

9/10 for looks from a guy that hated green equipment last season. 9.5 for accuracy from 3 shots, 2 hit fairways. He doesnt give a ten but wait and see what the rating will be for a driver that hits 3 of 3. Feel 9/10 because it feels springier, oh really?

It´s a fair point about the name, are the next range going to be called “AWESOME!” and “F AWESOME!” ? but then again is it any more silly than “Aeroburner” ? must admit I prefer the Titleist system of a letter and number..

Interesting to see and hear comments about everyone being longer with Epic. I had a fitting with Callaway this week and they couldn’t beat my current driver (TM Aeroburner TP) or my 4 wood (Callaway x2 hot). Both of those where fitted and it just shows the importance of a good fitting, it will ensure best performance and it will save you a lot of money in the long run. New and shiny doesn’t always mean better

Cmon Rob … 9 for looks ???? Callaway ruined this driver with the speed bumbs on top , so Ugly ! Its sad because this looks to be a hot driver and callaway went with the johnny carnival design and turned a lot of people off . Looks good on you though …;
